KILLING PHYLLoxERA.-Charles A. Wet
more, accompanied by John II. Wheeler,
the Secretary of the Board of Vihculture,
went to Oakville, in Napa, county, yes.er-
day afternoon, to make practical tests of a
new method for killing phylloxera on vines
and destroying the insects on trees. The
invention which it is proposed to try is an
old remedy, but applied by new method,
ard consists of charging the vine and the
soil with a current of electricity until an
influence is produced under which the
insect cannot live. Practical results on a
vine are said to show themselves by this
method within forty eight hours. Mr..
We,more thinks the theory on which the
method is based is very plausible, and said:
" | have strong suspicion that this man
has struck something good" Mr.. Wheeler
accompanies Mr.. Wetmore to make the
microscopical examinations. The expert
ments will necessarily be on a small scale
and will last three or four Days. 4. Call,

VICTORY FOR SABIN.
Purchasing the Northwestern
Manufacturing and Car Works at
Auction for LOS .OoO.75.

The sale OF the Northwestern Manu-
featuring and Car Works was held
at saltwater Mimi, at the court house by
Referee w. c. Wiliston OF Red Wing. and
the property was finally struck OFF
to the Minnesota Thresher company
at 1,105, 000.T5. The only other
bidder for the works was Andrew Crawford
OF Chicago, the Western financial agent for
Drexel, Morgan & Co., who dropped out
after bidding 81. 103, 900. The price at
which the works were taken was
surprise to all, the impression having
prevailed that the price would be run up
to at least s.. 0oO,0 ard perhaps half a
million beyond that. By the order OF
court, the referee has five days i'll which to
prepare and file his report OF the sale. The
sale must be approved by the court thirty
days thereafter, and then the thresher
company, before taking possession, must
settle with Receiver Brown. proceeding
which some assert will take two or three
months to accomplish, during which time
Mr.. Brown will remain in possession.
In an interview Mr.. Sabin said: I'm
just simply say that the thresher
company own S2,G5O, 900 OF the
practically all the claims. There
are % few small claims outside OF
these which they do lot own, and which
can give them no trouble whatever. All
there is to it. the thresher company have
got to settle up with the receiver, and own
ing as they do, about all the claims
against the campany, walk into possession
by paying comparatively small amount
OF money. There'll be no trouble on that
score whatever, and they'll be in posses
sion very shortly. The contested claims
are in the hands OF the company, so that
they will all be adjusted among them
Selves"
Saltwater seemed to be overjoyed by
the turn Of Affairs and In the evening
Senator Sabin was serenaded and made
a speech.

Bishop Moore, OF st. Augustine Fla, and
myself we're all classmates in the American
College at Rome, and we have, ever since
his fall from grace, taken a deep interest
in him. We consulted with Archbishop
Corrigan, and he sanctioned a course we
had determined upon pursuing. That
c urse was to send for DR.. McGlynn and in
form him that we had interceded for him
with archbishop Corrican, and if he was
willing to ask forgiveness for his offenses,
there must be some hope Of his being re-
stored to his church. DR.. McGlynn met
us soon afterwards aid expressed himself
as being willing to repent. The cause will
have to be adjudged by higher church au-
thorities than any in the country but 1

shortly be taken back into the fold. He will

How the Cable Cars Work.

well-known New York plumber who
crosses the Brooklyn bridge pretty often
escorted friend, stranger in the city,
down to witness the working OF the cable
grip. The Number explained it in the fol-
lowing words:
Now the old thing works like this" he
said. You notice that big wheel over
there?"
Yes"
"Well, there's dewfunny on the side
that's connected with a megigger that's
out Of sight and when steam is on and
you want to work the trap, you just pull
the hopper and the dingus ketches hold Of
the cable and presses it against the wheel;
then a catch iron fip.fap does something
that 1 don't understand and the cable
reels off them thingumbobs, understand?''
Quite" said his friend gravely; but
what is the use OF that gilderfuke at the
far end?"
THAT is sort OF twistycutis that keeps
the cable from kicking against the cutoff
valve, which has an automatic thingum-
bob that grabs the cable"
"Oh yes, see. It's wonderful, and I'll
have to tell the folks at home all about it,.
Let's go and get something
